Abstract:

We present a logical framework for representing the agents in two different cooperating information systems. We define an architecture for Integrated Supply Chain Management in which the supply chain is managed by a set of intelligent agents responsible for one or more activities. We also define an architecture for an enterprise engineering system that allows the exploration of a variety of enterprise designs. We introduce the notion of an advisor as a formalization of the different perspectives that we have with respect to an enterprise. By representing activities in both architectures as sets of first-order axioms in a microtheory, the tasks for the different agents in the architecture can be represented as finding satisfying interpretations of the constraints. 1.0 Introduction A necessary first step in the design of cooperative information systems is the precise definition of the tasks performed by different components in the system and the ways in which they interact. This specifi...
